What is significant about the number 21?


This is a picture from last year's VBS. Julie (or someone else), can you explain what these bags are all about?

  1. Hey everyone!

    This is the Note Rope! Every kid makes their own brown bag. (In a sense each kid has a cheap mail box for 2 weeks) They have their names on it and decorate it how they like. They are there for the whole time we are there, and the point of this is to encourage the kids every single day. Everyday they walk into VBS they have a new note in their bag. Whether its a long note or a scripture saying we are praying for them, they have something everyday. I would love for EVERYONE going to participate in this. Notes and encouragement are something we all take for granted, but the kids on the ranch do not have the sort of encouragement we easily get. The kids LOVE getting cards. Its so much fun seeing their faces when they get the cards every morning.

  2. Is that something we can write in English or should we translate it?
    This is SUCH a great idea!

  3. I think you can write your notes in English...but if you know some Spanish, that works too!
